Side Walks: One Woman's 30-Year Journey to Discover Her Roots and Find Her Way Home - Paperback
Description
by Julie D. Pappas (Author)
Side Walks is the epic story of a woman's discovery of clues to her family's history; clues that were buried, not just in closets and under bed frames in dusty boxes, but in secrets, traumas and loss.
Side Walks begins in a Northern Michigan graveyard 30 years ago and takes the reader from the Michigan wilderness of the 1880's to Nazi Germany in WWII; from self-determined immigrants to disenfranchised American Indians; from the chains of mental illness to the bonds of sisterhood; from gardens to gravestones and back again.
Side Walks is far more than family history - it's ultimately the story of Julie having to reckon with her own secrets, traumas, and losses and the way strong, resilient women - some living, some long dead - helped guide her through the wilderness back home.
